pSilentBob's pSARM log (pSponsored)

First and foremost I would like to thank LG Sciences for allowing the five others and myself to log their new product, pSARM. I reckon I'll go ahead and say a few things about myself. I've been lifting on and off since my sophomore year of high school but got back serious into it one year ago. Six months ago I whipped my diet into shape.

Depending on what's for dinner I average anyway from 2500 to 3000 calories a day. I try to eat as many times as possible during the day. Some times I luck out and get seven meals, but that's usually a luxury. Yes, psyllium and branch chain before bed to me is a meal, I'm a weird kid. Ultimately I try to stick to a 40/40/20 and go low/zero carb after 6pm.

My lifting schedule during this log is 4 on, 3 off. This is not by choice. My school schedule virtually inhibits me from lifting on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays. I make up for that with my four day split. Thursday is leg day, Saturday is chest/tris, Sunday is back/bis, and Monday is shoulders/high rep legs.

About a week ago I hit my personal goal of 190lb. This was a semi-long term goal that I started back in August when I was 220 and had a bf% of over 20%. Now I'm at about 15%. I will get as accurate a reading as my gym can give me (the little box w/ the grips.) Background aside my new goal is to swell up to 200lb, in essence gaining 10lb of lean body mass. I wasn't expecting to near this goal until April or May but maybe LGS can help me reach my goal quicker.

Anyway, enough about me and on to the show! I have work after I train (as often the case,) so I will update my progress in the evenings.

Well, I've gotta say I was a little more than excited to be given the opportunity to log this product for LGS. Nothing really to report regarding the product. I could definately tell that I didn't have any stims in my system today, excluding the preworkout stuff. As promised, I checked my bf% on the gripper thing at the gym, it said 12% but I think it isn't calibrated properly. I'm thinking I'm closer to 15%, but it does feel nice seeing 12, not gonna lie.
Cals are lower than I was hoping, will possibly add a glass of 1% or fat free milk to breakfast instead of just water. It turns out I'm getting more carbs in than I really way to. It's not substantially higher but I will probably be adjusting that. Really wasn't happy about the bbq chicken for dinner, but it could have been worse. Friends wanted me to meet them for drinks and stir-fry. As good as that sounds I've got work to do. (I'm building here )

Tomorrow is Back and Bis. As tempting as it will be to dive in to all of those super bowl party foods I'm going to resist. Sunday is my normal cheatday, however I believe that I'll be moving that to the middle of the week, probably Wednesday or Thursday since I do not train on either day. This is my first log so please bare with me.

If there is anything you'd like to see me do or anything that you can comment on about my routine/diet please don't be shy. I may talk a lot, but I do have thick skin so let me have it.

On a diet like you have right now, you are setting yourself up for failure. The mundane nature of that diet will have you miserable after a short while.

Been doing this diet for about 6 months now, not really feeling miserable nor do I feel like I've failed at anything. Food is fuel, not something that I really 'enjoy' if you will. My diet is a little more varied then one day implies, however I will look in to canned tuna for while I'm at work and at school. (Maybe then I can dose back on the fish oil a little ) I save the lunch meats for when I come home at night, usually at 9 or 10 depending on the day.

I didn't take my first dose of pSARM upon rising and instead chose to take it preworkout and then with my postworkout shake. The reason I'm using EAS weight gainer is because I was able to get it 50% off. Employees get first dibs on clearance items. I have everything needed to make some homemade postworkout shakes but I'll stick with this premade stuff for the time being. Sure cholesterol is high in store bought gainers but I've never had an issue with them and at last check my total cholesterol was really low, 128 I believe.

Nothing to really report on my workout. Just sort of setting a baseline to compare with the weeks to come while I'm giving pSARM the chance to settle in to my body.

I have no idea the nutritional content of the chili. Probably had a little bit of everything, but the unhealthy kind of everything I'm willing to wager.

Tomorrow is shoulders and I usually try to throw in some light leg work as well. Maybe after the gym and before work I'll head out and find a cheap digital camera so ya'll can really start making fun of me. Anyway, I've gotta be up by 6 for classes and whatnot so I'll leave it here. Goodnight and goodluck.

GO GIANTS!

Did not like interval running this morning. The PE instructor thought it'd be a great idea to run outside on a muddy field while it was still in the 40s and we're required to wear shorts and tshirts. My only complaint is that my feet are still soggy. Jerk. Anyway, when I walked back to my truck to head to temple, I downed some ragnarok mixed with wms that I mixed before I left. I figured there was a chance that I would have been more tired than I was. Either way it was a nice little pick-me-up for the lift.

To me shoulders is just a good hard day. After a few sets you really start to feel your delts trying to break outta your skin. I chase each Arnold Press with super setted Rear Delt, Lateral, and Front raises. I keep the 10lb DBs at my feet so I can grab them immediately after finishing a set of Arnold. My rear deltoid is somewhat underdeveloped so I'm gradually building it up. Next week I'll probably be using 15s instead of 10s. It should be noted that every 3rd or 4th set I try to throw in some shrugs and reverse shrugs with 20s to keep from tightening up too much.

I love the bradford press. On my 2nd to last set of bradford press I could start to feel a pain in my wrist. I just recently started training without gloves/straps to help build up my wrists. I was so pissed off that I went to the locker room, grabbed my gloves and threw up the 110 with no pain in my wrist what so ever. I'm gonna stick with no gloves to build my wrists and hopefully instances like this won't happen much.

I did less legwork than I thought I was going to do today. I think I have my PE instructor to blame for that. Anyway, the next week days are all off days for me, which really sucks. The only bright side is that I come back on Friday, Leg day, with 4 days worth of pent up aggression and intensity...I wonder if the pSARM will highten that any...would be nice.

Will add more later for the remainder of the day, just wanted to go ahead and get this morning posted.

Alright, finished updated my daily intake. I ate a little more today, which was good. Took a half hour nap in the afternoon, which was good. Overall today was good. First time in awhile that I'd had tuna and it will not be the last. A little rough on the breath on the go, but good when I've got time at the house.

Still too soon I think to say whether or not I am experiencing anything from the pSARM. I'll give it 10 more days at 4 caps a day and then up it to 6 a day if I'm still not noticing any difference.

I know I said I only train 4 days a week, but I was going stir crazy. So I went and did a modified chest day. Felt good using the DBs for incline and flat bench. I'm not gonna lie, I felt pretty damn big on the hammer str decline w/ 3 plates on both sides. I didn't have any preworkout juice with me but I was getting some amazing pumps. This could be from the pSARM or I was just really fired up.

I didn't eat well at all today. Kinda sad about that, might do some casien + psyllium before bed to add a little more protien and 100 cals or so to today. The more I look at 2100cals, the madder I get at myself for not eating enough today. Dangit!

Anyway, back to the pSARM. This was the only thing in my system, aside from DCP, that I could attribute to my workout. However, I took it at 1:00 and didn't start lifting until 4:45. My vascularity in my arms was much more pronounced than normal on chest days. This could have been due to using DBs instead of machines. If my lift today was really attributed to the pSARM then I am really looking forward to the weeks to come! GET BIG!

Becuase I knew I would be in the gym today, I only did lower back work in my PE class. I normally finish my regular back day with good mornings and stiff legged deads, but I figured I'd go ahead and get them over with. Anyway, instructor had us do ab work as well. Crunches, Obliques, 6 inches, Bicycles, etc. etc. Nothing really worth logging.

After my workout I had a banana waiting in my car for a little bit of reload. I worked from 10 to 1 today and had a few shakes in there. I timed it right so that I would have a relatively empty stomach for my pSARM + preworkout cocktail. Back day way fun. I tried going a little heavier than my last back day and it turned out well. I did seated rows instead of reverse flys cause it had been awhile since I'd done regular rows.

In so far as bicep work, on hammer curls I pulled the DBs in toward my chest until flexed instead of straight up and down. This seamed to create more of a burn in the head of my bicep...I think I'll do that a little more often. All of my bicep work was supersetted. I straddle the incline bench doing hammers, sit down and do incline curls, then grab the ez curl bar and do my supine set with that.

Mixed up the cardio a little by jumping on the elliptical instead of the bike. All in all it was a good day of lifting. I'll probably have a casien shake before bed and add the macros to my totals for today. I'll feel much better about 2500 cals than the 2200 from yesterday. Tomorrow I have no chance to lift, stoopid school. I won't be getting home until 10 tomorrow night so I'll do what I can do update before bed. Good night and God bless.
